Very good advice Southern, you said everything I was going to say..........

Doin what I can. I've seen a lot of people come and go out here and people either leave for a better position or leave because they can't handle it. I know there are a lot of people wanting to venture this way but don't know how or where to go.

Those are good ones. Once you get an offer from them though you gotta accept it quick.

Ok here's a list of companies. Just so you guys know. If you got a record you may or may not get a call if you apply. Also some jobs require a clearance. If your credit real jacked up or something then you may or may not get a job. Any job over here requires a 100% background check. Good luck!

Also. It would be very helpful if you already have a passport. That way you won't have to wait. Some companies will reimburse you for your passport and any other fees that involve you relocating.

Thanks Ladies, I've been contemplating about getting out, so this may help my decision..

Also I have a TS clearance already..so does that help the process?

 

[southern_mr.337]

Wow @ this list, I'm going to copy this and e-mail it to other people trying to get over here, Thanks Southern!!

I make it do what it do and Kimi I might need a favor somewhere down the line even tho u said u don't but I think u arent that mean..right?

Thanks Ladies, I've been contemplating about getting out, so this may help my decision..

Hell yea...man that clearance is ur lifeline and will keep u afloat as long as u maintain ur personal finances you'll be fine

For KBR people, if your base pay is $4000, what will you make a month if you are in Iraq? Last time I was their it was almost $8000/$9000 a month. Is that still the case?

 

[313 wayz]

You should pull in around 11 or 12 with a 4k base pay. You know the uplift is 75% right? My base is 3800 and I bring in around 11k.

Appreciate it, yes, the recruiter just called me back and told me it's 75% uplift which comes to $130k a year. I leave next month for Houston, but first I have t pass the WABI test. Other than that, glad to be going back to the sandbox!

 

[313 wayz]

I'm so glad you got picked up!! I knew it wouldn't take long. You're resume was one of the best I've ever seen, and coming from me that's a lot! I'm currently leaving KBR and going to another company, but congrats!! I'm so happy you got back on the project. Good luck with the Wabi, remember to give common sense answers and you will do fine

Thanks, it really didn't take that long! Granted that I pass the WABI I will be in Houston April 18th

Where are you going to now? Fluor, Dyncorp, Parsons?

Thats whats up. I might be headed up north too. Weighing a whole lot of options right now tho.

 

[borninthe80's]

I got ask I don't have no military experience no trade skills, just a high school diploma and a about 30 something credits in college. What kind of jobs

could I get and what kind of work do you all do out there Kimi? If i qualify I would seriously think about going over there to get some kind of bread

stack for my future. I don't have no criminal history but my credit is shot a little so what kind of work would I apply for and what would be the field for

me since I don't have no military experience.
